Scheming

If I can give no stars I would...Andrew Smallman was my Attonery ...I'm very disappointed I gave him thousands of dollars to take me out of some type of situation he said he was aiming for reckless driving...I could have took these same charges months ago ..you didn't do anything...my husband is so m...ad that he had to spend this amount of money he will also be doin a review and the rest of my family as well...I was the only one who believed this man and I got screwed

Beyond the best

I was referred to use Andrew Smallman to handle my husband's estate. With that referral came a more personal friend than a lawyer. He was more than an attorney. He handled more than the estate, and treated me as a family member, not a client. His word was gold to me. I trusted No one and he gave me l...ight at the end of the tunnel to see clearer after being devastated, used and taken advantage of by so many people and friends. He listened and said and did everything humanly possible to see that NO ONE screwed me over, and I got everything that was rightfully mine. I am so grateful to have known him, and had him represent my husband estate, and my personal matters. I owe him so much more than a thank you and am truly grateful for everything he did.

Simply the Best!!

You will not find any lawyer better than Andrew Smallman. He represented my brother and his case was dismissed. He continues representing my boyfriend who is a Three Time Habitual Offender and has always exceeded our expectations. He has worked magic. His out of the box thinking, dedication, and fo...llow through is unmatchable. Andrew Smallman has my highest recommendation.

Highly recommend!

I worked with Andrew Smallman on my recent criminal case and would recommend him to anyone that wanted the consummate professional who gets results. Based on the facts of my case, I was expecting a much harsher sentence but Andrew was able to secure to minimum required by law. Needless to say I cou...ld not be happier with his performance. The judge's words at the end of the hearing said it all, "ma'am, you're attorney did a great job for you."
